"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR VULCAN MIND!!!" :P
(this comment was in no way directed at anyone in particular, but if you felt offended then I was probably talking about you)
Hollywood needs to grow some new balls
like thats a fair comparison.
All the 80s action films are getting destroyed, whats next running man, commando, double impact, rocky????
Just like STAR TREK,...The reporters who interview should have some balls to point out the obvious!
CLIFFHANGER reboot, great so not long before we see OVER THE TOP, TANGO & CASH remakes, yahhhh!
lastly, i think the Star Trek comparison means they r goin to some how have Sly go back in time and cuz him not to drop the person in the opening scene, therefore rewriting the history of THE CLIFFHANGER!!!! DUN DUN DUN!!!! dumb idea
According to that poster he is.
